Anthony Michael Hall is facing up to seven years in jail after he was charged with felony battery with serious bodily injury for allegedly attacking his neighbor, TMZ reported on Sunday, November 27.
The Los Angeles County district attorney charged the Breakfast Club actor, 48, with the crime two months after he allegedly broke his neighbor’s wrist and injured his back during an altercation outside their condo development in Playa del Rey, California.
In grainy September 13 security footage obtained by TMZ, a man identified by the site as Hall is pictured arguing with another man before shoving him to the ground and walking away. The site reported at the time that the incident started after the neighbor left a gate open, prompting Hall to yell at him to close it. He then shut the gate himself before allegedly arguing with the neighbor and pushing him down.
TMZ reported that due to special circumstances, Hall’s max jail sentence may be upped from four years to seven.
This isn’t the first time the Sixteen Candles star has gotten into trouble at his condo. In 2011, TMZ reported that he was arrested on suspicion of disturbing the peace after an alleged dispute with his neighbor. The site also reported that Hall frightened his neighbors at the time by “screaming obscenities and challenging people to fights in the street.”
Hall is also known for his roles in National Lampoon’s Vacation, Weird Science, The Dead Zone and Edward Scissorhands.
